So, the wife has made plans for us to take our first real trip. Well be driving from Birmingham to Dallas to be with her family for TG. Taking I-20 straight in. We have a 40' national islander DP. The guy I bought I from told me he'd had engine a gen services 2 weeks before I bought it (2months ago) but if he did, he didn't get the timing belt changed. What things should I get serviced besides oil and fluids for such a long trip. And I am soooo looking forward to the roller coaster ride in a 40'-er thru Jackson ms.

thanks dean and sarah. will look into these things asap. i thought the belt would have been timing but now i see its a serpentine belt. thanks again. we look forward to seeing the sights and enjoying the road. theres really no where to park at the inlaws so we may be staying at a park nearby. after looking around, they are really expensive on daily rates. 40-50$ compared to the few ive seen around here 20-35$. any suggestions?
